Abstract
The invention relates to a compacted microporous fat powder that can suitably be used as an oil structuring agent. The compacted microporous fat powder has a freely settled density in the range of 90-600 g/l; a particle size distribution with at least 90 vol. % of the particles having a diameter in the range of 20 to 600 μm; a maximum G'/G′ratio of more than 2.0, wherein G′ represents the elastic modulus at 10° C. of a dispersion of 2 wt. % of the compacted fat powder in glycerol, and wherein the maximum ratio is determined by recording G′whilst increasing the frequency from 0.1 to 15 s, by subsequently recording G′whilst decreasing said frequency from 15 to 0.1 sand by calculating the ratio G′/G′at the frequency at which said ratio is highest.
